A pedagogic theatre experience: The play as a drama device

Abstract

This work represents a theoretical and practical path carried out from a question: how to create and develop a genuine and adequate drama work at school? To answer this initial question, it was necessary to reflect on the role of teachers and students in the theatre practices. The play, as concept and dynamics, contributed with the elements needed to elaborate a working tool, which allows to relate pedagogy and theatre in an
appropriate and useful way.
